^ nice!! I like em!

And I was practicing again today and like...I made up my first...er....rhythem/song thing! But my sister thinks that it's already been used, or she finds it familiar. I kinda do too. We think it's a nirvana song, but we can't place it. It's kinda cool though. lol. I feel so proud. Retard

hm. let's see. Nah, I don't mind. let's just see if I could do it. First try. It's all the top string, so it's pretty easy.

----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
-9-99-12-1212-9-99-7-777-------------------

Then repeat that. It looks like it's 1-2-1-2, but it's actually 2 #12's. Smile So you'd just repeat it over and over and stuff. I think it's actually the verse part in the "song" or whatever and then the ending is somethign like...

---------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-44444444444455555555555555566666666666-5554443330---

Something like that. You can hit it as much as you want, but the 5430's stay as they are. lol. It's somethign like that. I was just expirimenting one day and Now I use it as a warmup and stuff. Start slow and go faster. Smile

crap. I think I typed it funny. The second tripple of 9's are together. lol. And today, my stepdad was messin around with it (which I don't mind AT ALL) and he told me that next weekend or so, we're gonna check out straps. I don't have one and he's like, "That fucker is heavy! But I have no idea how much the straps are, so that's why we'll check them out. I get pics and strings there for the guitar, but I've never really looked around". So yeah. Does anyone know how much straps usually go for?? Or do they range by alot??

crappy ones that snap cost about £5, so dont bother with one of those. But decent ones e.g Levy's can be aroun £10-20, and the uber-posh ones about £40.

I wanna drop guitar and pick up bass, but mother won't let me. She says "they're the same anyway".


why would you wanna drop guitar for bass? all bass is is an easier version of the guitar...

oh, and i play both.


Easier version than guitar? Have you heard the bassist from Mudvayne or Red Hot Chili Peppers play? O.o
